How you're covered

A typical policy in Oregon may include the following homeowners insurance coverages:

  • Dwelling coverage (Coverage A) protects your home's structure (roof, walls, etc.) as well as attached structures, like a porch.
  • Other structures coverage (Coverage B) protects detached structures, such as a fence, shed, or detached garage.
  • Personal property coverage (Coverage C) protects your personal belongings, including furniture, clothing, and electronics. Certain items, like jewelry, art, and collectibles, are often only covered up to a specific limit so you may want to purchase an endorsement to schedule these items on your policy at the coverage amount needed, also known as "adding a rider."
  • Loss of use coverage (Coverage D) may help cover costs associated with an increase in living expenses, up to your policy's limit, if you're unable to stay in your home while it's being repaired or rebuilt due to a covered loss.
  • Personal liability coverage (Coverage E) protects you financially if you're legally responsible for another person's injuries or damage to their property.
  • Medical payments to others (Coverage F) may pay for medical expenses due to a covered occurrence.

Keep in mind, coverage under your policy is subject to exclusions and conditions within your policy. It's important to read your policy to understand the coverage provided.

Did you know?

Because Oregon's landscape includes dense forests, home insurers may assess wildfire risk as part of the policy purchasing process. While wildfire risk may be just one of the many factors used in determining your homeowners insurance rate, it could also affect availability of coverage and your ability to qualify for specialized policy discounts. While we encourage you to take steps to reduce your property's wildfire risk, only some of the carriers in Progressive's network of home insurers offer premium adjustments specifically for wildfire risk mitigation actions.
